We're not masturbating around with some research project. We never were. Even when Linux was young, the whole and only point was to make a *usable* system. It's why it's not some crazy drug-induced microkernel or other random crazy thing.

Talk is cheap. Show me the code.

C++ is a horrible language. It's made more horrible by the fact that a lot

of substandard programmers use it, to the point where it's much much

easier to generate total and utter crap with it. Quite frankly, even if

the choice of C were to do *nothing* but keep the C++ programmers out,

Making Linux GPL'd was definitely the best thing I ever did.

If Microsoft ever does applications for Linux it means I've won. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

I'm doing a (free) operating system (just a hobby, won't be big and professional like gnu) for 386(486) AT clones.

My name is Linus, and I am your God.
